Lovely. Although I haven't watched much Fushigi Yuugi, I am working my way through your fics but trying to aviod the spoilers. Hard, but fun. =)

lets get one thing straight: there will never, ever, ever be too many nuriko stories, of any kind. with that having been said, good ficlet! i enjoyed it quite muchly ^^...good job of doing nuriko, he is indeed a hard character to write for, but you did a good job! woohoo!

NIIIIIIIIIIIIIICE NO DAAAAAAAAAAAA ^_^

Awwww!!! That's so sweet!!!!! And by the way, yes, I DO watch Fushigi Yuugi now. I saw up to the ep. where Nuriko-san died. *cries* And I've been looking everywhere for Nuriko fics... And even though this fic wasn't about his death, it's still about Nuriko! Anyway, great ficcie! I wanna see more!!! AND CONTINUE GEM WARRIORS!!!!!!!!!!!!! *Ahem* Gomen nasai.

I like this! It's an excellent characterization of Nuriko, who is obviously much more than meets the eye. I love the way your writing just flows. ^_^ Awesome work!

This is an immense, impressive work of excellent writing, beautiful characterization, and intriguing insight. I am most-most impressed...and, aaahhhhh, my name! My name! *grin* *ahem* But, anyway. If you wouldn't object, I would love to post this fic on my page, under the fanfiction section. It's just the kind of Nuriko fic I loooooove to read...and, it's done so well... *sob* Thank you for writing this. I love it. :):):) PS: For how difficult Nuriko sometimes is to write, I think you captured him brilliantly...and, despite the fact that I've seen the "mask" concept used before to speak of him, you've brought something fresh and good to it, something that adds a lot to the fic, makes it even more excellent. This is a good-good read...and I'm not just saying that because it's dedicated to me. :P:P Splendid work. :):)
